Do you think they care? Do they have rules around residency?
I did a bit of searching and found people saying you can sign up and use it in Canada without issues as long as you can provide a US address which shouldn't be a problem, especially that you don't need a physical SIM anymore if your phone supports that.
However I was wondering if this is actually a good deal for us Canadians. I'm with Fido and pay CAD65 for unlimited calling, text and 10GB of data which is less than the USD60 that I saw online. That includes roaming between US/Canada/Mexico but at least right now and for the coming months, that's of little value.
Yes, you are right, Fi is expensive compared to many other options in Canada.
For me, this number is pretty much used for all my Bank/Investment/Social accounts (from my US life), and it will be too much work to replace this everywhere. Too many 2FA accounts use this phone number, etc. I'd like to get out of this dependency, but slowly if I have a choice.
